Do you wave/nod/flash other jimny drivers? was created by SOTA

I was driving the Jimny down the road on Sunday, just passing through Farnworth when another Jimny coming towards me flashed his lights. Green it was with a lift and a few bits.
I was a bit surprised, it's never happened before, so I waved and they waved back, nothing rude, all the fingers, all the time.

Has this ever happened to you?

I sometimes do this in my Range Rover, which really confuses people.

If you ever see someone in a White Range Rover Sport waving at you, you car is not on fire, WAVE BACK.

I wave to all Jimnys; there are two kinds of people though: enthusiast ones (usually in modded Jimnys) wave back, old ones in stock Jimnys are confused

Same here or the "biker nod" if in slow enough traffic.
The green oval brigade seem a little less inclined to though in my experience round here.

Black Jimny's don't get stuck!

I never see any modded Jimnys and no-one round my way in a standard one seems to even recognise that mine is a Jimny with It's cage and winch bumper etc.

Landrover drivers rarely wave. I have followed mates in a Landrover convoy and they have got waves from other LR drivers, then they see Mr and ignore me!

Stuff them!

I'll wave at modded 4x4s but my favourite pastime is winding up shiny white 61reg freelanders on the way home from a pay and play by sitting outside of them on a dual carriage way, I can usually get a start on them whilst their stop start is kicking back in. he he :evil:
